      When would you NOT want to thin provision?

      And are you saying if it is over 2TB you cannot thin provision?

      That's the issue, thin provisioning is limited currently to 2TB or smaller volumes (VHDs.)

      Wait, is it 2 TB volumes as in ext3 partitions or is it 2 TV VHDs?

      VHDs.

      That was another thing people are always clamoring about with XS ... the lack of VHDX.

      Which I think is ridiculous that it's not in 7. VHDX is over 4 years old. Even worse, QCOW2 is something like 10 (or more) years old, and has almost a 9 EB limit.

      The limitation on the partitions sizes is because of the use of snapshot functionality. Imagine having a 9EB array and partition, and then trying to perform a snapshot on it.

      VHDX has the same limit (or similar). No one would really have an image that size, but it would be compatible with every other system. And snapshots wouldn't take any longer. It creates a new file and writes to it and reads from the old one.

      My situation wasn't a snapshop - it was a fast copy.. so I'm not really sure.

      I really want to play with Xen and Xen Orchestra but don't have two spare servers ........ Yet!

      Only one needed to get started playing with that.

      Yeah but I like the sound of replication 😄

      More than high availability?

      I'd say that is a good bit of information to have, but who is going to be moving PBX VM's midday? 😛

      For me it was good to know that it works that smoothly, not because I plan to ever move one during the day. But because if I HAVE to move one during the day, I will be confident that it will work.

      You did notice I up-voted your post? I was just messing with ya. Yeah, that was a valuable test, for sure.
